Will Close Revisions and Citations

In our English 150 class, we had the opportunity to use a lot of different forms of media together in one to make one new form of media. We worked on e-poems and we revised them a couple of times, and part of the process of creating a piece of media is making sure you give credit to all the artists whose work you used. In my e-poem, I used purely work from other artists’ videos, so I’m going to give credit to those now in this video.

[0:34] The digital face video on Vimeo

I’ll start with the first clip I used. It’s a video on Vimeo, It’s a research study by Casey REAS, and it’s a video where people see their faces on a screen; it’s like “Allegory of the Cave.” 

[0:55] The “Trippy Animation” video on YouTube

Next video I used is this video: “Trippy Animation courtesy of Anthony Francisco Schepperd.” It’s posted by a user called Michael Scott Andrews. It has really cool animations on it. I thought it would be really great for the video; it really added a lot of pop I thought. 

[1:12] The mime video on Vimeo

I used a few seconds from this Martin Freeman video where he plays a mime who’s accused of murder. 

[1:20] Google images search showing King Harvest album covers and photos

I’ve got to give credit to King Harvest; I used their hit “Dancing in the Moonlight;” I thought the song worked great in my video. 

[1:28] The “Above the Gray Clouds” video on Vimeo

I used a great video called “Above the Gray Clouds,” posted by Moin Samadi, on Vimeo. Really interesting video: cool animation, cool story.

[1:40] Floodlight stock footage on YouTube

The floodlight is stock footage I found on YouTube. The lightbulb is just an image I pulled off Google. 

[1:51] Camtasia video software

And, I want to give credit to Camtasia, because Camtasia was a big help. I used a lot of their effects, a lot of their features like text and fade-in/fade-out. In my revision I used the glow feature and I thought that added a lot on this part with the face and then later when I put it in with the floodlight and it gets really bright that way. I learned how important it is to make sure you give credit to other artists when you’re making other media like this, so this is my salute to them.
